Khabar Khair (Only Good News)

In the past, Yemen exported over 2,000 tons of honey annually. However, recent times have seen this tradition threatened by conflict and a changing climate.

In partnership with the European Union (EU) and Government of Sweden, UNDP and local partners, For All Foundation (FAF), Sustainable Development Foundation (SDF), Life Makers Meeting Place Organization (LMMPO), and Tamdeen Youth Foundation (TYF) have technically trained and financially supported 397 beekeepers, including 80 women to strengthen the Yemeni economy and empower communities.

 This initiative is part of the Supporting Resilient Livelihoods, Food Security and Climate Adaptation in Yemen Joint Programme (ERRY JP III) that aims to enhance the resilience of crisis-affected rural communities in Yemen.
